<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>Why have two lists?&nbsp; I've yet to see anything go by on the private list that couldn't have been made public.&nbsp; There are already members forums inside the membership area (haven't checked lately because they were largely inactive).&nbsp;Do we really need our own sandbox, hidden from the view of "the public," to put it in lighter terms?&nbsp; </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>Given that those who subscribe to the public APG list must have either an interest in the APG or are thinking of becoming members eventually, why do we need a cloistered list?&nbsp; Seems to me that one could even argue that having a private list, thus shutting out those with an interest in professionalism who aren't yet members, is contrary to what the APG stands for.&nbsp; </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>What's the thinking behind the creation of two lists, and whatever the thinking was, is it playing out as expected? Are there enough "private" issues as were expected?&nbsp; "Members Only" sign needed?&nbsp; I think what's going to happen is that the two lists are going to carry the same kinds of discussions, and comments about double posting will become the norm.</FONT></DIV>
